Ohhh also forgot to mention we did visit Santa Maria del fiore the amazing church that my mum played her bass in when she was in Florence.
We caught the train to Venice and easily found our hotel that's on the mainland just out of Venice. We then headed on 5min train ride into Venice. The expression of just get lost in Venice is very true. Even with a map it's impossible to no where you are. We found the rialto bridge and wondered round the shops filled with either glassware or masks. It's cool to be here where so many of our fab movies have been set such as Jason Bourne jumping across streets through windows. Early night tonight in our quiet hotel unlike the roudy hostel in Florence.
Buono giorno. Great use of Florentine time.Sounds like you stopped rushing quite so much too. Glad you could drop into one of the churches we played in, that is cool. Venice is someting else isn't it? A fantasy island that exists on borrowed time. What is your weather like? Are there very high tides and flooding in San Marco piazza? So glad your adventure is going well. Catch that boat and I look forward to the next blog.Amare/love Mum
